Once you have finished setting up Node and Meteor, as per our setup guide, you can use empirica create to create your experiment.

Simply run the following command, where my-experiment is your experiment name (no spaces or uppercase letters):

empirica create my-experiment

It will create a directory called my-experiment inside the current folder. Inside that directory, it will generate the initial structure and install the transitive dependencies.

Once the installation is done, open your project folder:

cd my-experiment

You can now read more about the running your experiment, the structure of an Empirica experiment, and you can try our tutorial:
